Beginning March 1st all vehicles parking for more than 15 minutes will require a valid parking tag. There’s nothing like the sights, sounds, and sensations of Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Did you know that 100% of all proceeds from the new parking tag program are used to protect and preserve the park for generations to come? You can purchase your annual tag now and have it shipped right to your house or come pick one up at a visitor center. Get ready to ! For more information, visit our website go.nps.gov/GRSMfees

New food truck alert! Set up just 2 weeks ago down the hill from our community at the corner of Boogertown and King Branch roads. Stop by or drive through for fast, good food. Support one of our locals! See photos for breakfast menu. Also tacos, burgers, hot dogs and most likely more to come.

It was another great day in the Smokies. Afternoon visit to Cades Cove, proving late fall/early winter is a perfect time to visit. Lots of empty roads and smaller crowds. Since bears don't hibernate here, there isn't a bad time to visit.

Winterfest has started. Live local musicians entertaining on steps on Convention Center. You all should be here.

Well..there's a reason for the cages around trash cans. We got this video after the hungry bear passed about 4 feet from me while I was grilling, I was ignored and then this happened.

We had some bears come visit today. Another awesome day.
